General Characters/Storyline Thread

Discuss the colorful and unique characters, and the storyline of Pokemon X and Y here!

All posts should be constructive and contain ideas, support/elaborate their ideas, and must contribute to the discussions and/or on-going arguments. Also, one-liner posts such as "I agree.", "I want [this] to be in the game!", "This sucks!" will all be considered SPAM, deleted and you will be possibly infracted.

Let's promote a worthwhile discussion!

I have been summoned to the "Looker Bureau" and then it said "Chapter 1: This guy is a real...Looker"

It appears that Looker shows up again post-game.
Mr. Handsome looks like a post-game staple character, and it appears that there will be a small post-game storyline involving him.

The Lumiose city promotional artwork showed two men walking side by side, the one appears to be Looker, and the other appears to be Colress. I guess it is safe to assume that Colress will also appear as other have speculated. His research about Pokemon Strength could turn out to be about Mega Evos after all.

That's awesome if Colress has an appearance this Gen! Personally, I feel he is definitely one character from past games who deserves an appearance in X and Y considering he was trying to unlock the hidden strength in Pokemon and this Gen having the Mega Evolutions.

I figured Looker would appear. As a international policeman he could be anywhere. I'm alright with Looker appearing all over the place oddly enough.

By the way, are we allowed to name our friends/rivals? I'm not betting on being able to name Shauna, Trevor, and Tierno, but what about Calem/Serena? Are we allowed to name them? It's weird that in some cases we cannot name our main rivals anymore.

Moon/Glovehead Berlitz! Make it a reality for a Berlitz reunion celebration!

Too bad. I always liked naming the rivals whenever possible, but I guess it's not a big loss. I'm not at all glad to see that Looker's back though; I know some people worship the ground he walks on, but I've never really liked his character. All those little missions he has the player do seem like a fun way to pass the time during the post-game though.

Does anyone know the final teams of Shauna, Tierno, Trevor, and your rival...or where I can find out?

70% of the Serebii population uses ultra powerful legendaries (also known as ubers) in their teams.
If you are one of the 30% that thinks outside the box and doesn't use ubers, copy and paste

"The famous Professor Oak's grandson came here to the Kalos region to study abroad. He got "Bonjour" down just fine, but he still always said "Smell ya later!" when he left!"

You know, someone on Route 10 does mention Colress by name, saying that he's visited the place.

Drasna offers this fun fact:

Spoiler:- Not much of a spoiler, really:

"You know, my grandparents came to Kalos from a distant region. They came from a town where the past lives on... When I was growing up at their knees, they raised me on tales of the Pokémon of time and space. It's really thanks to those stories that I decided to become a Dragon-type Trainer."

So I'm guessing that they're from Celestic Town?

In the same building in the North Boulevard of Lumiose, there's a reference to the Riches, a random ghost girl who shows up and says I'm "not the one" and the Leader of Saffron's Fighting Dojo in person. This game has so many references to older gens, eh?

I heard from leaks that if you play as the male protagonist, you end up with Shauna, but another leaker said it was Serena? I'm confused. Does this mean girls end up with Tierno? Or is it Calem?

Disappearance: REWRITE (19/??)Author: Mitsukiharu (collaboration account) Summary: Legendary pokemon once resided with humans until war and bloodshed turned the center of Johto into a wasteland 150 years ago. The legendaries scattered to keep peace. 5 years after Red was defeated, he and the Green are in a situation like before war broke out. They must find the cause of the disappearances of the legendary pokemon or the world would be thrown into disarray.

The rivals in this game are kind of annoying. Serena is bland as hell and Tierno has a really irritating personality. Trevor and Shauna are ok, but they're still pretty boring. The whole group dynamic is pretty interesting though, and I like how they actually... exist when you're not talking to them. It's cool to see the rivals battling trainers and what not.

I'm not surprised at Tierno being irritating; the moment I saw his artwork I was worried that he would be. Strange how in this case I could judge a book by its cover lol. I really don't care for the trio though (Shauna, Tierno, Trevor). I know a lot of people were happy about them when they were revealed, but the idea of having a whole group of characters who support you throughout your journey didn't really interest me. I'm only here for the two playable characters (Calem and Serena).

They are quite annoying, but what I really find annoying is the nickname they give you. They use it all the time. I chose mine without putting much thought into it and now I hate it. Is there any way to change it?
